Playlist For Sunday, February 17, 2019: Boys, Girls, Mufflers, and Mucklucks

We're in the depths of it now. The Ides Of February, and that damn groundhog lied his furry little pants off! Even if he wasn't wearing any. Never trust pant-less rodents with unspellabbabble names. Just never trust rodents.



So we're locked in the Gulag probably for another month or so. But beware, I am back on the roads, flexing this new hip twixt brake and GO pedal! Gettin' cocky. Back to the gym, as well, tho no hard bike climbs up Kendall's mountains. That will have to wait for...well, whenever that damn buck-toothed pest says I can. When it's spring-tra-lah! Meanwhile, I'm happy to be moving and (almost) grooving to the Song Of Norway.

Speaking of songs, 2 On The Aisle has a theme and a 1/2 this Sunday. Maybe I should call it that: 2 1/2 on the Aisle. Because you need that extra half a seat for your winter paraphernalia, right? Mufflers, hats, overcoats, mucklucks. You surely don't want to SIT on all that stuff through Hamilton!!?!?!? Or even a flop. I mean, if you had to, you'd surely hate whatever you witnessed. It'd be lumpy and hot and get in the way of your standing ovations...Okay, so for the winter months, 2 1/2 on the Aisle!!!  (My seat saving just got a lot more difficult to arrange with the usher.)

But back to the theme: Boys and Girls. Kinda like the bathrooms in your old middle school. But Broadway (and a smidge of Hollywood) so it'll smell better and have different acoustics. Should be fun. Me And My Girl. A Boy Like That. He Vas My Boyfriend. Thank Heaven for 'em. Well, you get the drift. (Hah! Snow reference! Jesus.)



So hope you can listen in. Hunker down with your muffler and your furry pants and raise a muckluck to Broadway. These ides too (2?) shall pass.
